Trichoderma (teleomorph Hypocrea) is a fungal genus found in many ecosystems. Trichoderma spp. can reduce the severity of plant diseases by inhibiting plant pathogens in the soil through their highly potent antagonistic and mycoparasitic activity. Moreover, as revealed by research in recent decades, some Trichoderma strains can interact directly with roots, increasing plant growth potential, resistance to disease and tolerance to abiotic stresses. This mini-review summarizes the main findings concerning the Trichoderma-plant interaction, the molecular dialogue between the two organisms, and the dramatic changes induced by the beneficial fungus in the plant. Efforts to enhance plant resistance and tolerance to a broad range of stresses by expressing Trichoderma genes in the plant genome are also addressed.
木霉（拟体Hypocrea）是一种存在于许多生态系统中的真菌属。木霉属的真菌通过其强大的拮抗和寄生作用抑制土壤中的植物病原菌，从而降低植物病害的严重程度。此外，近几十年来的研究表明，一些木霉菌株可以与根直接相互作用，提高植物生长潜力、抗病性和耐非生物胁迫能力。本文综述了木霉与植物相互作用的主要研究成果、两者之间的分子对话以及有益真菌在植物中引起的显著变化。本文还探讨了通过在植物基因组中表达木霉基因来增强植物对多种胁迫的抗性和耐受性的努力。
